A key suspect in the $10 million robbery of Kim Kardashian has died suddenly just as the case was finally headed to trial. Marceau Baum-Gertner, 72, a career criminal known as the gang’s “super fence,” was allegedly responsible for finding buyers for Kardashian’s stolen items, including her missing $4 million engagement ring. Nicknamed "Nez Râpé" (Rough Nose), Baum-Gertner had a long criminal history and was a major figure in the Paris underworld. He died on March 6 in Paris’s 10th arrondissement amid fears he might "name names" during trial to lessen his potential prison sentence. He was set to be tried alongside ten other suspects linked to the 2016 armed robbery and kidnapping of Kardashian.
